Holly
Hi, my name is Holly, and I have experience working with children in both camp and educational settings. I enjoy creating safe, engaging, and supportive environments where children can learn, play, and grow. Most recently, I worked as an Assistant Preschool Counselor at Noah’s Ark Summer Camp at the Jewish Community Center in Owings Mills, MD. In that role, I provided active supervision to ensure children’s safety at all times by maintaining ratio and keeping children in sight and sound. I supported both indoor and outdoor activities, including swim and water play, and worked with children individually and in small groups. I focused on supporting children’s physical, emotional, social, and intellectual development through daily activities. I also assisted with documenting children’s learning and play through photos and communication with families, and I communicated any concerns to lead staff and directors when needed. I also worked as a Facilitator and Teacher with the Teaching Collective at SUNY Albany, where I co-facilitated an Introduction to Feminism course. I helped design and deliver interactive lesson plans, supported student learning through grading and feedback, and contributed to an inclusive classroom environment that encouraged participation and critical thinking. Earlier, I served as a Junior Counselor at St. Paul’s School Summer Camp, where I supported daily camp operations including attendance, meals, and activity transitions. I assisted with sports, arts, STEM, and group activities, and helped ensure a smooth and structured camp day for children ages 4 to 12. I also trained as a Counselor in Training, which gave me early experience supporting children in a camp setting. In addition, I volunteered with the Boys and Girls Club of the Capital Area, where I assisted with youth activities, crafts, and event support. Overall, I bring hands-on childcare experience, strong communication skills, and a genuine passion for supporting children’s growth in safe, fun, and structured environments.

Mariyah
Hi everyone! My name is Mariyah, and I’m a 21-year-old college student at Morgan State University looking for babysitting opportunities for the summer and possibly longer-term. I have reliable transportation and years of experience caring for children of all ages, from babies to older kids. I’ve always babysat my younger cousins and grown up around childcare my entire life. As part of a military family, my mother has owned and operated multiple daycares over the years, so working with children has always been a big part of my life. I’ve also coached at gymnastics gyms and volunteered with different youth and community organizations. I genuinely adore children and love creating a safe, fun, and positive environment for them. I’m available for weekdays, weekends, date nights, and flexible schedules. Feel free to message me if interested or if you know a family looking for childcare help!

These experiences have strengthened my ability to communicate effectively with children, adapt to diverse needs, and create engaging, positive environments.
